FILLING THE BALLOONS

woensdag 6 oktober 2010

Kieron Gillen is responsible for the first few stories in this paperback, doing some good stuff. When J. Michael Strackzynski suddenly left Kieron stepped up the plate to continue the story. He fills those shoes amazingly well, making it just a bit more action packed.Thor fights Doctor Doom in this one, and you know that has to be fantastic. Gillen's Doom is a very creepy character, tougher and more evil than ever before. The surprise ending was just great, showing us just how much of a master of manipulation the lord of Latveria is. Also, Gillen did a great job with the antique Asgardian vocabulary, managing to stick with it but also making sure it wasn't hard to read.

Welcome to Filling the Balloons. This blog will focus on comic book writing, being a blog for writers and readers alike. We will do some reviews, some interviews and other fun stuff. To get an idea about what we're going to do, have a look at www.sonsofspade.tk, my other blog that focuses on PI-fiction.
